PREPARING THE CHILE SAUCE
Cut open the dried ancho and guajillo chiles, and remove the seeds. Place the ancho chiles, guajillo chiles, and chile de arbol in a large saute pan. Toast the chiles for 2-3 minutes until they are fragrant. Top the toasted chiles with hot water. Let the chiles steep in the water for 30 minutes. In a dry saute pan, toast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, bay leaves, cloves, and black peppercorns for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. - 2
While toasting, keep the ingredients in the saute pan moving constantly. Drain the chiles, and place them in a blender. Add the toasted spices to the blender as well. Lastly, add the julienned yellow onion, fire roasted tomatoes, smashed garlic, kosher salt, beef stock, apple cider vinegar, and dried oregano to the blender. Blend until smooth. This is your chile sauce.

My maternal grandmother taught me how to make this birria back in 1990. She and my grandfather owned a cantina called “La Cabaña,” and this was one of the most requested dishes by their regular customers.

Easy Birria Inspired Tacos Easy Birria Inspired Tacos
I couldn't find guajillo or other dried chiles required for authentic Mexican birria, so I came up with this recipe that uses more readily available peppers you can find in the supermarket. You can also skip the tacos and serve as a stew if preferred.

California Farm Quesa Birria Tacos and Consommé California Farm Quesa Birria Tacos and Consommé
Cookpad member Pinkblanket’s Kitchen listed her Birria Taco recipe in here, I made it from ingredients on hand, and I made it very spicy.Quesabirria is a birria taco with cheese and consommé dip.I love new ways to cook tough meats, because we raise and butcher our own beef, pork, lamb, goat and fowl, and eat game meat like elk and venison. We eat all the tough meat cuts ourselves.These tacos and the consommé dip taste delicious. Thank you, cookpad member Pinkblanket’s Kitchen.#CA2025

BIRRIA TACOS 🌮 BIRRIA TACOS 🌮
To introduce TACOS or other mexican food to family members or friends from other countries can be difficult as not many have access to authentic mexican ingredients. Ancho, Pasilla and Guajillo chillies are hard to come by and these chilies are used in mexican food. Knowing what they can or cannot get helps us to come up with this recipe with minor adjustments without compromising on the taste of Birria Taco. This recipe uses dried chilies that is available in many Asian shops around the world since it's used in many Asian food. This dried chili is similar to Arbol chili (Chile de Árbol).#CA2025#CookpadApron2025#may2026#Birria#lunch#dinner#snack#appetizer#starter#beef#meat#mexican#texas#HEB#boneless#lamb#fingerfood#taco#redonion#pork#bites#chuckroast#slowcook#slowcooker#consomé
